KES Separation - Oil Drilling Mud System for Solids Control
The Oil Drilling Mud System by KES Separation is an integrated, multi-tank system designed for efficient solids control in oil and gas drilling operations. This system includes a sequence of tanks: a shaker tank, centrifuge tank, mixing tank, reserve tank, and trip tank, all working in conjunction to create a closed-loop mud circulation system. It's compatible with drilling rigs of various sizes, ranging from 250HP to 3000HP, offering scalability for different project requirements. The system efficiently handles solid particle removal through multiple phases, using equipment such as shale shakers for larger particles, followed by desander and desilter cyclones for finer particles. Finally, a decanter centrifuge is used for the finest solid particles, supporting the mud weight cutting process. The inclusion of mud agitators and hoppers in the mixing and storage tanks ensures continuous and effective mud processing, facilitating seamless drilling operations.
Oil drilling mud systems use multiple tanks to circulate mud, including a shaker tank, centrifuge tank, mixing tank, reserve tank, and trip tank. KES Separation offers various sizes of mud systems up to 3000HP, with different capacities.
Oil Drilling Mud System is a multi-tank mud system including shaker tank, centrifuge tank, mixing tank, reserve tank or mud storage tank and trip tank. By connecting with rig and mud pump, it forms closed loop mud circulation system. The mud system also called solids control system, or mud circulation system for the oil gas drilling operations. KES Separation oil drilling mud system is available for different oil drilling rig sizes from 250HP to 3000 HP with different capacity.
The solids control equipment involved in mud system as follows:
- Shale Shaker for first phase solids control, to remove 100 microns solid particles;
- Desander cyclones for second phase solids control, to remove cuttings 40 microns solid particles
- Desilter cyclones for third phase solids control, to remove cuttings 20 microns solid particles
- Decanter Centrifuge for last phase solids control, to remove 2-7 microns fine solids, we call it mud weight cutting process.
Oil drilling Mud System normally including following mud tanks depends on the configuration:
- Shaker Tank (It normally equipped with 2 or 3 units shaker, desander, desilter)
- Centrifuge Tank (It normally equipped with 2 or 3 units high speed and low speed decanter centrifuge)
- Mixing Tank (It normally equipped with several sets mud agitators, mud hoppers and jet mud mixers)
- Storage Tank (It normally equipped with mud agitators, and connect to mud pump)
